Learn More About Our Coalition

Welcome to Falls Free Coalition


Falls are the leading cause of fatal and non-fatal injuries for older Americans. One in three persons over the age of 65 falls each year; the number grows to one in two for those 80 years or older. Every 13 seconds, an older adult is seen in an emergency department for a fall-related injury. Every 8 minutes an older adult in Pennsylvania is hospitalized for a fall related injury. Here in York County, deaths from falls are on the rise.

About Us

In 2015, the coalition came together to help older adults live in the place they call home, by raising awareness and educating older adults about fall prevention. Over the past 2 years, the coalition has partnered with various senior centers, churches, townships and other sites throughout York County to provide educational classes and presentations about falls and fall prevention.
